This song is about leaving a place where you spent a significant amount of time and not knowing when you will be back.
lyrics
I’m hangin’ on, I’m hangin’ on, I’m hangin’ on to everything that’s going on
I’m goin’ down, I’m goin’ down, I’m goin’ down this new path that I’ve just drawn
I’m leavin’ town, I’m leavin’ town, I’m leavin’ town tomorrow I leave at dawn
So I’m hangin’ on, I’m hangin’ on, I’m hanging on to everything don’t let me go away.
Pre-Chorus:
It's been a long time, shoulda left you, left you without a dope beat to step to, step to step to, step to step to
‘ Cause I’ve been waiting all night near you
Without the chance to meet you
I can fell the dawn is really close now
Soon I’ll be gone wondering how
How come I couldn’t act calm down and just react
But instead of that I get myself another glass
Adjust my hat maybe I’ll get one of your glances
It’s cat and mouse stuck in this sick trance
It’s cat and mouse lost inside the dance
Chorus:
Version 1
I don’t know what’s going on with that boy over there
He’s dancing and he’s drinking like he just doesn’t care
I’ll be gone tomorrow so I know it’s not fair
But this night I just need some air
I don’t know if I’ll ever see you again
We should flush our worries down the drain
But I know that deep inside I’m falling for him
Tomorrow it won’t mean a thing
I’m writing down, I’m writing down, I’m writing down on all of the things I should have done
I’m drinking down, I’m drinking down, I’m drinking down and soon it’s all gonna be gone
I’m leavin’ town, I’m leavin’ town, I’m leavin’ town the memories will still live on
So I’m hangin’ on, I’m hangin’ on, I’m hangin’ on to everything don’t let me go away.
Prechorus
Chorus
I’m moving on, I’m moving on, I’m moving on nothing’s gonna get me down
I’m holding on, I’m holding on, I’m holding on something new is gonna come around
